Star Citizen - Squadron 42 Crowdfounding without Kickstarter.

[Haldi]

Kinda sure we have a few Freelancer or Wing Commander fans here?

Chris Roberts, creator of those, is planing a new Space Game! "Star Citizen" Squadron 42!
His Target is to gain more than 2 Million $ at best 6 ! The Strange thing is he doesn't believe in Kickstarter as platform but thinks to do it on his own.

currently the website is down due to heavy traffic ^^
